Furthermore, it sets a terrible (and extremely dangerous) precedent. Do we really want to convince future Presidents that the only way they can make sure they aren't personally gone after as part of a revenge-cycle between the factions is not to peacefully give up power in accordance with our rules and norms?

'Cuz, the last time I'm aware of a Republic creating that incentive structure, eventually, one of the leading Executives (guy name of Julius) decided he wasn't willing to sacrifice himself to maintain a system on behalf of those who would seek to take it.

So we should give the president a pass so a future president doesn't go Juan Peron?


What can we do to help you stop screaming?
